FC 3 is not supported by RedHat in any way and security updates are not
being produced. I'm not sure of the state of the fedoralegacy.org site
anymore, so you're running at your own risk. However CentOS 4 is binary
and rpm compatible with FC3, so if I were you, I'd just add CentOS
sources to your yum and carefully dist-upgrade to CentOS 4. Custom
software you have installed won't notice any differences between CentOS
4 and FC3, and you'll the added benefit of active security updates for
the next couple of years.
